The 2017 introduction of the 116518LN and its rapid market acceleration through the late 2010s — the Cerachrom yellow gold Daytona on Oysterflex caught the same allocation-economy dynamics as the steel 116500LN — has dragged the 116518 along behind it. Used prices on the engraved-bezel reference firmed in the years after its discontinuation, with full-set examples carrying matching box, papers, and original Rolex strap commanding a clear premium over partial-set examples. The 116518 trades on material and configuration terms rather than on headline provenance, with the rarer dial variants (MOP, sodalite where documented, factory diamond markers, factory pavé with confirmed provenance) carrying the auction-grade price band.
